After Two Suspensions in Three Years, Will the LCB Relinquish Control of Cannabis Labs?

Emails released in a public records request show that Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board (LCB), the state’s go-to agency for regulating cannabis, may be looking to get out of the businesses of ensuring the safety of legal weed in Washington.

The LCB currently licenses private labs that test the potency and safety of legal weed in the state, but it seems that the agency may soon send the responsibility of certifying those labs to the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA).
